  • Replacement for a Portege A100 DVD player

    Hello

    My Portege DVD drive makes horrible rattling noises and seems to be endangered. I read in a thread here that universal readers could not work as of the Portege BIOS has assigned the DVD drive as slave and the new drive should be a slave to work. Is this correct? I really don't want to do the fix welding!

    I have another laptop that has a TSST drive and I plugged it and the portgege showed an ide error. It of just a matter of having good firmware or is the problem with the above mentioned ide settings.

    I selected a Toshiba PA3162E dvd player - 2 CD 2, but he said with the Portege 4000, 4010 compatitble, M100 and Tecra 9000 it's does not list the compatible A100. Does anyone know if this drive works on my machine?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    If you check s manuals for Portege A100 is there a list of compatible ratings? Problem is that all Toshiba laptops do not have the same hardware platform and any waiting won't work on each laptop model. As far as I know the pin assignment is different. Because of this, you need compatible ODD for your laptop model.

    As I said at the beginning usually all compatible sides are included in manuals s user document. Please check. If this isn't the case, please let us know.

    Hello

    I discovered that the Express II port replicator is compatible with the Portege M750.

    I searched a bit on google and found this link to an Advanced Port Replicator III over the datasheet. But it s only in German.

    However, the M750 Poretge is not listed as a unit compatible and taken in charge.
    So I guess that more Advanced Port Replicator III cannot be used with protected M750 toghterer

  • Portege R500 - DVD player does not work

    Hello
    I love my laptop Portege I bought this month of September. The only thing is that the DVD player is not working for some time.
    -When I put a DVD or CD, I realize I can't freely turn the disc in the drive while it is still open. Strange, but I don't see anything blocking the rotation of the disk.
    -The system does not recognize at all have a DVD player. Initially, it worked, I can't say exactly when it went wrong. I checked with Toshiba Assist: in the information panel, it shows no info on the DVD player, in diagnostic Panel, I have the opportunity to check the DVD but when the test system is just jump the operation all the time, indicating that the Player cannot be found.
    -In the control panel I don't see no more among the hardvers
    -For starting, the DVD is one last thing to check in my BIOS settings. But in fact when the start-up the laptop I can hear the sound of the reader looking for something inside, turning or trying to rotate the disc, but it seems always becomes stuck and starting takes like 5-7 minutes due to lengthy trials, get the DVD player work in vain.
    -Now even when I put the energy setting to oriented perf, I no longer hear the system would look for DVD (setting the player gets off everything when using not saving)

    Someone from Toshiba support could help me? Is it possible to check this problem with the remote connection to my laptop, or something? Or should I take it to the service? With this, I also have a little challenge: I bought my laptop in Hungary, but now I stay in Japan throughout the year. So I would need a station in Tokyo where they accept my European warranty. Could you please provide me with any help or ideas? If possible, direct mail also. Thanks in advance!

    > Could someone support for Toshiba to help me?
    To do this, you will need to get in touch with the Toshiba ASP in your country.
    Here in the forum you can get suggestions form common users because it s a user forum to ;)

    > Is it possible to check this problem with the remote connection to my laptop, or something?
    I doubt that this is possible since this could be a hardware problem

    > Or should I take it to the service?
    Maybe this would be the best

    > I need a station in Tokyo where they accept my European warranty. Could you please provide me with any help or ideas? If possible by direct mail also
    On the page of Toshiba Europe, I was able to find an info on TOSHIBA EMEA LIMITED WARRANTY for NOTEBOOKS.
    This warranty is applicable only in the EMEA region (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and can be executed in any
    Countries the EMEA where Toshiba or its Service providers allowed offers warranty service terms and conditions provided for in the present
    warranty. This warranty covers the costs of service parts and labor needed to restore your system to full operational status.

    As you can see in the Japan is not covered by the EMEA region :( So I doubt that the warranty will cover the costs to the Japan.

  • Portege M200: big screen via the port replicator

    I have a Portege M200 with APR III. I realized that the DVI Jack does not work with it, even if for some reason any, even though they are not supposed to all other ports don't. EACH of them!

    What I'm asking today is how the hell can I get the laptop out on the big screen through the APR? I tried everything, it has the chipset nVidia go 5200 FX (which is able to output DVI according to nVidia)

    I just got a Philips 20 "widescreen TFT and got tired of watching her in the stretched standard resolutions.

    One of my friends has also Tosh lappy, but it's a Tecra 9100, which will be released on the big screen without any questions whatever it is standard, it appears as an option in the Billboard settins. In addition, nVidia say that this chipset is capable of custom resolutions, but I can't find it in the updated anywhere driver.

    Can anyone help?

    Hello

    Well the Tecra9100 is not a Portege M200. Are completely different books.
    The M200 protected does not support these interfaces.
    This is a technical limitation, that the port of mouse PS/2 keyboard PS/2 port, serial port, I Link (Firewire) port and DVI port
    will be not supported on the Advanced Port Replicator III, if a protected M200 is moored.

    The following ports are supported and can be used:
    Line-in Jack, taken Line-out, USB port, port external monitor, parallel port, taken Modem, LAN jack, DC IN 15V, housing for security lock, locking the computer.
    In the documentation for the Advanced Port Replicator III is a 'fact sheet for III Advanced Port Replicator"sheet where this limitation is descripted.

  • Portege R500 - anyone using the DVI Port Replicator II on WIndows 7 Beta?

    Hello
    I'm using the beta version of WIndows 7 on my R500 and runnig it's just well except the DVI Port (on the Port Replicator II Slim).
    I have installed this software Fingreprint, battery bluetooth (which are recommended as a solution by the Action Center) and the 'TOSHIBA value added together"which adds the management software of power supply, control over the 2 hardware buttons and gives the FN menu to the screen to control the functions FN1-9.
    I think I can say it's definatively a driver problem, because if I start the R500, the windows loading screen appears on my screen, but when he switches to the desktop, the external screen turns off and the desktop on the screen of the laptop. Also, no chance to activate via FN + F5.
    I tried with the driver Windows 7 buildin, the latest driver from intel (15.8.3) and the vista driver provided by toshiba (7.14.10.1244), but none of them work: (unlucky
    BTW: the vga output works, but only UNdocked :(
    Does anyone have a solution or a tip what to do or try?

    Hello!

    First of all, I have to say that Windows 7 Beta is as its name the indicates that a beta so there might be some problems and it s not sure that everything works fine with Windows 7 Beta.

    Your problem: you see the second monitor in the display settings? There you can active it and mark the option extend my Windows desktop on this monitor.

    Lastly but not the least you should do an update of the BIOS if you have n t the latest version.

    Good bye

    You can use the playback software DVD evry you can find on the market. It should not be used Toshiba one (WinDVD if you think about this one).

    I need to buy laptops for several employees who are moving between the United States, the United Kingdom and the Middle East.

    The part number Replicator of compatible Port to the R600 is difference to the United Kingdom, the United States and the Middle East.
    Users would be able to dock their laptops in one of the 3 offices, because they travel extensively between each country.

    Hello

    I think that it shouldn't be a problem with the different Portege R600 in combination with the Slim Port Replicator 3.

    Portege R600-11b, R600-10 b belongs to the same series (PPR61E), that the R600 US belongs to the PPR60U, but this should t be a problem.

    As far as I know the different R600 from different regions are not really different (some belongs to the same series) as far as I know there could be a difference between some pre-installed applications and some modules as for example the card wireless network, but this should not affect the use of Slim Port Replicator 3.

  • Satellite Pro A300D - cannot play movies on a Toshiba DVD player

    Hi guys,.

    When I play movies in Toshiba DVD player I get the following error message: "unable to output the video to an external device. Please check the external output setting after the end of the application. TEMPRO, I installed and tried to install all updates - some of them were for different hardware so wouldn't install.

    I get a similar problem in Windows Media Player "Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because there is a problem with the digital copy between your DVD player and the video card protection decoder. Try to install a driver available for your video card. VLC player works fine. The drive otherwise normally functioning.

    It's the same problem, as described in this thread: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=201029&tstart=0, but all the answers are a similar problem with HD DVD on a different model (P200).

    Anyone know how I can fix this problem? I'm not sure I can be bothered to go back and reinstall Vista etc...

    Thank you
    Alex

    Hey Buddy,

    According to the Toshiba DVD Player error message: are you trying to watch DVDs on an external monitor or TV?
    In your case, I will try to reinstall the DVD playback software. This means delete the current version and then restart your computer. Then download and install the latest software from Toshiba DVD player.

    But to be honest: it's that everything works with VLC media player as it s very big and small media player that can play all audio and video files. Isn t it? ;)
